The answer to why we need and want Cloud Services and Storage Area Network Solutions is simple - money. Ok, there are a few more reasons, but I'll start with cost savings. Businesses don't generate their own electricity to produce their products and services (except the electric companies). Why? Because due to economies of scale it's much more cost effective to buy the electricity we need from the electric company. This same economies of scale applies to shared storage and server services. Cloud Services allow businesses of all sizes to buy only the services that they need at that time they need them for a small monthly recurring fee. No longer do companies have to dole out hundreds of thousands of capital to own and maintain their storage and server hardware. There are a few more advantages to Cloud Services and Virtualization Services which I will address in my next blog.
